Expert Reviews

Michael Cooper (2007 Vintage) says

The 2007 vintage is a Gisborne red, grown at Manutuke. A blend of Merlot (82 per cent), Malbec and Cabernet Franc, it was matured for 10 months in oak casks (15 per cent new). Full-coloured, it is mouthfilling, with plenty of plummy, spicy flavour, supported by firm tannins.
